Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a base and an end-effector configured to dispense a medium onto a surface having a width or a length of at least two meters;
a metrology system configured to measure a position and orientation corresponding to an actual position and orientation of said end-effector relative to said surface; and
an autonomous controller configured to command said base and said end-effector to adjust said actual position and orientation of said end-effector based upon said measured position and orientation and to command said end-effector to dispense said medium onto said surface.
